"Why are you here? And why is she injured like this?"
The person being questioned felt seven parts aggrieved and three parts choked with tears.
God knows clearly that he is just a passerby. No, to be more precise, a nosy passerby.
Hao Baiqiang remained calm. He knew he had nothing to be ashamed of and also wanted to gain some face for his family.
"I followed my tribe into Chizhou and had planned to enter Quecheng today, so I took a shortcut. Passing Douchen Ridge, I encountered Miss Xiao's mount. By the time I found her, she was already in the current situation. I only gave her acupuncture to save her, and I don't know the rest."

He stood there in a daze for a while with his mouth half open, and then did as he was told involuntarily. When he came to his senses, there were only two people and one horse left in the entire forest.
